Potted. Planted. Packaged

Nov 7, 2009 by Paul De-Jong

Jesus final prayer (John 17:21)

Potted
  • Comfort has never been an ingredient to growth
  • If you are a potted Christian, you will want comfort & control which lead you to contentment, never grow.
Psalm 27: 4-5

Planted (Psalm 92:13-14 Those who are planted in the house)
How do you get planted?
  • Settle and remain in fertile soil
  • Embrace the value of the orchard - where you are planted, it is your destiny. Your destiny can never unfold until you embrace the value of the orchard
  • Determine to grow strong roots
    • When you want something to go up, there is something to go down
    • Root determines fruits
    • Root drills harder when they hit the concrete, because the harder the surface the better support it gives you.
    • When roots intertwined, it stands against wind.
  • Allow the require pruning
  • Fruits yields flowers
    • Like citrus trees, when people don't say thank you to you, you keep producing fruits.
Packaged
  • Package of seeds will not produce until it gets planted
